It’s a Booty Bag by Candy Jam, of course! So what’s a Booty Bag, you ask?? Well, let me introduce you…

First of all, my husband will agree that I consider myself an international spy of all things cute, unique, creative, and monogrammed. When I see something I like, I literally cannot force myself not to approach innocent bystanders on my quest to find out where they got their cute stuff. And my next victim, well, she was no exception.

So here goes… about a month ago, I spied a woman cruising through our restaurant holding her adorable baby; however it was the other cuteness she was carrying that really caught my eye. Now, she was obviously on a b-line to the potty so I knew I had to act fast. I immediately jumped up and intersected her b-line to ask her what she was carrying. Like any proud mom, she immediately forked over what she called a “Booty Bag.” I kid you not, this was the cutest thing I have ever seen. It literally and discretely had three diapers inside, a travel case of wipes, and her cell phone with room to spare. And last but not least, it was monogrammed with her child’s name. It was so beyond adorable, my spy-dar cuteness cup had runneth over.

Now, of course, she did not know where it came from since it was given to her as a baby shower gift, blah, blah, blah. But rest assured, I spied a sweet little “Candy Jam” tag on the side. As I stood there, overwhelmed by jealously and in awe of this amazingly gorgeous, yet functional contraption, I wondered why moms all over the world did not have one too!? And then as I reluctantly handed it back to her and congratulated her on being such a hip, with-it mom, I told myself I would stop at nothing to sell Candy Jam Booty Bags at Cordial Lee.

Luckily, my quest had ended a week later when I actually found Candy Jam and became an approved retailer. Yay! And to my surprise, they not only sell Booty Bags, but they have an amazingly adorable collection of other items to mix & match to your heart’s desire. They offer coordinating Bibs, Burpies, “My Minky” Snuggle Blankets, Small and Large Blankets, “Initially Yours” Bodysuits, Tooth Fairy Pillows, and of course, BOOTY BAGS… all waiting patiently for you to personalize them with your child’s name. And did I mention how soft they are!? So soft I wish they made them in an adult size. Hey, I’d wear it! Once you feel it, I know you’ll agree, and then you’ll willingly sign my petition to get them to do just that. I’m sure of it!

So if you’re looking to spoil your child in the luxuriousness of Candy Jam, then I recommend you look no further. Or if you have a baby shower coming up and you want to steal the show by giving the best. gift. ever. then you have found it right here.

So let’s join together in welcoming Candy Jam to Cordial Lee. All I can say is thank goodness I found them! What an amazing addition they are to our “not so little anymore” boutique.

In August of 09, the Cordial family packed into the minivan and headed towards the local animal shelter in search of our newest family member. As soon as we walked through the door, there she was, as if she has been waiting for us there all along. The moment we met Daisy, we knew she was the one. I had never met a sweeter dog, a more patient dog, or a dog more deserving of finding a home full of doting admirers.

I guess at the time, I did not realize what this sweet little dog was about to inspire. Once we got her home, I began to endlessly search the internet for the perfect accessories to compliment Daisy’s personality and style. I wanted to get her something fancy and frilly, but of course, it also had to be sturdy and strong enough for everyday wear. I ended up coming across a website selling Diva Dog – a complete line of dog collars & accessories. I immediately fell in love with the selection and thought, “Why not sell Diva Dog at Cordial Lee?” I had never really considered carrying a Pet Collection before, but once I saw it, I knew Diva Dog would be a perfect fit for Cordial Lee… just like Daisy was for us.

The Diva Dog collection is flirty and funky, fashionable and trendy, and even more importantly, strong and sturdy. And if it’s perfect for Daisy, then it’s perfect for Cordial Lee! So thank you Diva Dog, for joining the Cordial Lee Pet Collection… and thank you Daisy for joining the Cordial family! You truly are a Diva Dog now!
